Why We Chose the Lagoon 46 – Two Time Lagoon Owners – Linda and Mike

Two-time Lagoon owners share how their love for the brand, “We fell in love with Lagoon when we bought our first catamaran, the 380. She was easy to sail and the perfect introduction to catamaran cruising. But the Lagoon 46 is next level. It gives us the extra space we need to entertain family and the confidence to cruise the oceans of the world. We chose it over the 42 for that little bit more room, and when we finally saw it in person, it was an emotional moment. You don’t realise how beautiful these boats really are until you see one in the flesh.”
